Alien Abductions Part 1

Join hosts Ed Voccola (Rick and Morty, Bless The Harts) and Chris Cullari (Blumhouse, The Aviary) for a wild trip through the world of what scares them. 

In Part One, the guys explore the history of abductions, pre-1960s. Turns out, humans have a history of being whisked away by lots of creatures - including fairies. Learn all about the world of changelings, fairy circles, and the murder of Bridget Cleary before meeting a boy from Brazil who experienced the first recorded case of alien abduction... years before the world had ever even heard of such a thing.
